The initiative was taken by the MC club TKMC (Templar Knights Motor Cycle), which also conducts corresponding collaboration with another café in Olofström. The purpose is to provide the opportunity for a coffee for people who cannot afford themselves.
-We call it TKMC coffee. We spend a sum of money, so the café presents a receipt for coffee and Fralla that hangs at the checkout that you can take, says Peter Weidemyr, member of TKMC.
– It can be a single parent or someone who ended up on Kant, as I myself did when I became a pensioner and got a long way between the payments. Then it can be nice to be able to go out and have a coffee, to feel like part of society.

The club and pastry giving equal
On Monday, yellow patches came up at Rockos pastry in Karlshamn. The MC club and Rocko’s owner, Robin Falck, went in with SEK 500 each.
– If we notice that there is a pent -up need, we will continue so clearly, says Peter Weidemyr.
The fact that a motorcycle club is involved in charity may not belong to the usual. TKMC is also a order company, and in that spirit the club has support for the needy and weak as a guiding star.
-We are an American MC club. We are called Templar Knights and they were doing alms, so we try to help where we can. We are located in Karlshamn, Stockholm and Östersund, says Peter Weidemyr.
The money they donate comes from the club’s annual fee, and that the members give a penny per mile they drive.

The MC club contacted the patisserie
It was the MC club that contacted Rockos Café about the collaboration.
– It feels absolutely fantastic and like an important thing. We will continue as long as we can and will add more notes. I also hope that customers are hanging out and paying, there are many who said they want to help, says Robin “Rocko” Falck, who is also known as magician and local politician for the Moderates in the Care and Labor Market Board.
– I performed all over the world as an artist before I started patisserie, then you get a view of society and that not everyone is so good.
